<!-- Greeting --> Hi @adriancerejo! I'm [Dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot) and I’m helping the superset team. <!-- Answer --> You're right—Superset uses ag-Grid for table displays, and by default, the `.ag-cell` class applies `white-space: normal`, which collapses consecutive spaces. That's why your option symbol's whitespace isn't preserved. Superset doesn't currently override this, so whitespace-sensitive data like option symbols can be misrepresented unless you add a CSS override. Your workaround (`white-space: pre-wrap;`) is the correct approach. For a more permanent fix, you can add a custom CSS rule targeting `.ag-cell` (globally or for specific columns if you want to avoid side effects): ```css .ag-cell { white-space: pre-wrap; } ``` Or, for a more targeted approach (for example, only for the `osi_symbol` column), you can use a custom cell class in ag-Grid's column definition and then style that class: ```css .ag-cell.osi-symbol-cell { white-space: pre-wrap; } ``` There isn't a built-in Superset config or UI option for this—CSS overrides are the main solution for now. This is a common workaround for whitespace/formatting issues in Superset tables and charts, especially for financial data that relies on precise formatting. See related discussions and workarounds [here](https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/35928) and [here](https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/33865). <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
